I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights as Metro hotel rooms are all taken. When I made the reservation online, it actually show that breakfast is provided for 1 pax . But in the confirmation received, it shows no breakfast which is quite weird. One more thing that disappointed me is that they don't have wifi !!!!!! Unacceptable ....... More

Was put into this hotel by the airline on a stop over waiting for a connecting flight the next day. After an hour on the bus arrived and i was expecting something with a little more class. No real foyer, so no sitting around in the lobby. I was travelling business class, so i must have been given a bigger... More

Breaking an Asiana journey to Sydney, I transferred to the Royal Hotel, right bang in the heart of the city, in the midst of street life and locals having a night out along the buzzing Myeong-dong. Malls and historically important boulevards are minutes away on foot and the Royal is indeed in a great position. I was lucky it seems,... More

This hotel is not too bad but like most city hotels, the rooms are small. The only convenience is that it is smacked right in the middle of Myeongdong (although there are also many other hotels in this area). The cons about this hotel, though, is that the airport shuttle is infrequent. To catch a more frequent shuttle to the... More

On return leg of LHR-SYD flight; plane was late in but we still got the free stopover at THIS hotel. Free bus (hotel's own vehicle) to hotel, where we checked in using our Asiana voucher. This was exchanged for a pair of food vouchers- one for dinner, one for breakfast. We got the Exec floor (13) and room was well... More

An overnight stopover was arranged at Seoul Royal hotel by Asiana airlnes on our return from Sydney. We were impressed by the standard of the hotel & the location was excellent - only wish we could have stayed longer. Would stay again if ever we return to Seoul. Transfer time from the airport was approx 1 hour. More

Korean Air offered this hotel as a stopover in Seoul and this is a really good choice. The hotel is in the centre of Seoul, three minutes from the catholic cathedral. The room was wide and spacious. I was in South Korea for the first time and the funniest thing in the hotel was a toilet with lots of buttons... More

This hotel was part of a stopover package with the airline, room was clean and quiet, bathroom was good, plenty of hot water. Fabulous central location for a stopover, staff were friendly but some could not speak any English. The western meal I received in exchange for my meal voucher was strange to say the least. Breakfast was interesting with... More

Room was very spacious and with good quality furnitures. Nice bathroom with a big numbers of add-on for bathing. Very quiet for its location but view from the windows was not pleasant. Best thing- excellent location - exactly in the middle of famous crowded district. Bad thing was very high price! The reception clerk did found me a taxi to... More

I cant really comment on the price of the hotel as this was the first time I had been to Seoul and I had been told this is roughly what to expect. The room was pretty small (but again, apparently this is expected is Seoul). My mine gripe was the temperature of the room. It was unseasonably warm when I... More
